Proof of onward travel is a theoretical requirement (sometimes enforced by airlines, very rarely by Thai immigration) for entry on a visa exemption - it has nothing to do with TDAC.

International arrivals only - it's just the old paper TM-6 card, but raised from the dead in electronic form.

No, this is an arrival form.

The visa-free "transit" scheme in China requires that you depart to a different country than the one you arrived from, so the OP is seeing if there's a way to game that to his advantage.

@Mary *******

I don't know what happened in your case, but there is absolutely no requirement for a US citizen to maintain a US address - and I say this as a former passport officer.

The issue isn't jurisdiction over another country's laws, but jurisdiction over the people involved. As long as one or both of the couple are residing in a particular country (however that country defines residence), they can theoretically divorce in that country - that's why American couples back before WWII were able to go to Cuba or the Dominican Republic to dissolve their US marriages. Whether the country will agree to exercise that jurisdiction is a separate question.

@Bob ********

All Thai banks are required to do FATCA reports whether they want to or not, and whether or not they have any American customers, due to a bilateral agreement between the US and the Bank of Thailand. Even Thais must fill out a form stating whether they are a "US person" for FATCA purposes, and the actual reporting of account information is automated.

@Elías *******

A visa run is where you go to another country and apply for a visa at a Thai embassy or consulate, while a border bounce is where you set foot in the other country and then come back to Thailand to get a visa exemption on arrival. In the first case you have an actual visa in your passport; in the second case, you don't.

No.

TTB is also 30k.
